"U-Uhh..."

"Stop making me jealous, i had enough five years ago..." he muttered.

"I'm n-not making you jealous and w-why are you hugging me?" i bit my lips to make it stop from trembling.

"Yes you are. You're making me jealous unconciously, wanna know a secret." sambit niya at marahang humiwalay mula sa pagkakayakap saakin.

"What?"

"I know what you think about me before, i am cold, too serious and grumpy. But little did you know that you are slowly changing me, when you told me that you like me i don't know but... i feel relieved and happy. And when everytime i saw you with my brother i feel like he's stealing you away from me and i hate how it feels..."

My lips parted.

"So y-you're telling me that you liked me before?" hindi makapaniwalang sambit ko.

Oh no! don't fall for his trap yet, not just yet. Kailangan mo pa siyang pahirapan! Stop being so marupok to him! Hindi nakakaganda 'yan!

"I wasn't aware of it, or maybe i was just being in denial." sambit niya.

I don't know but my heart just melted. Hindi ko alam pero ikinatuwa 'yon ng puso ko. To be honest, wala talaga akong kaalam alam sa tunay niyang nararamdaman noon but hearing this... i don't know if it's true pero malaki ang naging epekto no'n saakin.

"I don't know what to say..."

He grinned.

"You don't have to say anything. Just keep your eyes on me."

Mas lalo akong natameme. Hindi ko alam kung kailan ako masasanay na ganito siya! He's just too irresistible!

"Wanna go somewhere?" he asked while holding the tip of my fingers.

"Where?"

Nagkibit balikat siya.

"I don't know, anywhere you choose." sabi niya habang nakatingin sa mga daliri kong hawak niya.

"Penthouse mo." i uttered absentmindedly.

Napaangat siya ng tingin saakin. Then he slowly nodded and agreed to my suggestion. Hinintay ko muna matapos ang trabaho ko bago kami didiretso sa penthouse niya.

"What about my car?"

"We'll pick it up tomorrow."

Tumango ako at dumiretso na nga kami sa kotse niya. This is far from his old car, this is brand new and more luxurious this time. Mabango rin ang amoy ng kotse niya, smells like a manly minty after-shave. Napansin niya ang pasimpleng pag-amoy ko kaya napangisi siya, napaiwas naman ako nang tingin.

Parang sinusunod ko na lang siya. Whatever he says, i always allow myself to give in to his commands just like before. Is this bad? but why does it feels so good?

Nang makarating kami ay agad agad siyang bumaba at pinagbuksan ako ng pinto. Nang makababa ay hinapit niya ang bewang ko papalapit sakaniya, i slightly pushed him away.

"You're too close?" i rolled my eyes.

He grinned.

"I thought you like me this close?" he said with a ghost of a smile on his lips.

"Wala akong sinabing gano'n!" singhal ko sakaniya. Tinawanan niya lang ako at mas lalong hinila ako papalapit sakaniya.

My heart skipped.

"Okay then, ako na lang. I like us this close, i want you even more closer than this."

My mind got scandalized. Agad ko siyang hinampas sakaniyang braso.

"Ang bastos mo!"

Napaawang ang labi niya at nakatitig saakin. Then later on, he barked a huge laugh. My face flushed. Anong nakakatawa? He thinks i'm too innocent and naive? I know what he meant duh!

"Baby, what are you thinking? Anong bastos?" natatawang sambit niya.

I glared at him.

"I know what you meant. You want us to have sex, hindi ba? Kasi hindi sapat sa'yo ang ganito kalapit!" i said, accusingly.

Mas lalo siyang natawa.

"I did not mean to sound like that, i just want to be closer to you as much as possible but not in that kind of way... pero pwede rin." he grinned.

Umirap ako sakaniya. I feel flushed about our topic kaya hindi na lang ako umimik hanggang sa makarating kami mismo sa penthouse niya. The place doesn't even changed a bit, kung ano ito noon ganoon pa rin ang itsura niya hanggang ngayon.

I suddenly remembered the last time i stepped on this place. It was him and Samantha together, and the rest of it ayoko na masyadong alalahanin.

"Hindi mo man lang ba naisipang umalis rito? I mean, it's been a year and you're still here..." i uttered as if wander my eyes around.

"Because this is the place that reminds me of you..."

Natigilan ako. Nilingon ko siya and i got startled when i saw him too close to me, few more step and he'll definitely invade my personal space. Marahan ko siyang tinulak.

"Don't be too close." umirap ako nang pakunwari. "And stop talking nonsense."

"How can i get you back?" he muttered with his weary eyes looking straightly to me.

Napaiwas ako nang tingin. I hate how he makes me feel, the feeling that he can make me give in with just one snap of a finger or even just a blink of an eye, that easily. He's my slave now but it feels like he's not at ako pa rin ang nagpapaka-alipin sakaniya.

"Prove me something and maybe... just maybe, i will let you in again." i gulped.

He moved even closer.

"I am not really good at words, i already told you that. So i am acting how i feel but action without a word is confusing too that's why i am doing it both, just to prove to you that this is real, my love for you is real." he said with his piercing and intense looking eyes.

"How did you know that it's love? Maybe you're just confusing yourself too." mariing sambit ko.

What if naguluhan lang siya noong umalis ako? Nasanay lang siya dahil lagi akong nasa penthouse niya, everyday we're together. Kaya noong nawala ako nanibago siya? Ayokong dahil nasanay lang siya saakin kaya mahal niya ako, because that's far from the real meaning of love.

He sighed.

"I just know. Come on, i am not really good at words."

I stared at him, full of dominance.

"I don't want to be fooled again, not you nor anyone. Show me what you got, Drexzel Avello Acosta."

He stared back with the same intensity.

"I'll show you."

And before i could react, i just found our lips pressed to each other.

To be continued.
